The amazing world of baby signing grows more and more popular every day. Parents all over the world are catching on, and are looking to teach their wearing babies sign language in order to bridge the gap in which the baby cannot yet speak. But in time, the baby will be able to use the signs to communicate whether they are hungry, cold, wet and more.

Although a baby does not have the motor skills to speak, they do have the eye-hand coordination to learn and adapt the signs taught to them to communicate their wants and needs to their parents. Teaching and using baby sign language consistently with your hearing baby can reap many beneficial rewards.

• Reduces frustration of parents when trying to understand their baby's needs.
• Babies are able to communicate their wants and needs.
• Babies verbal language may be accelerated earlier than normal.
• Helps to enhance receptive and expressive vocabulary.
• Helps them learn to read more easily as a child.
• Enhances creative ability.
• Promotes a better child/parent bond.
• Results in a higher IQ by 10-12 points.

My name is Brooke Hamrick. I started Tiny Signs in 2008 because I am as passionate about sign language as I am about children. I grew up signing to my hearing impaired brother, so for me it's second nature. I started introducing signs to my son when he was an infant, and by 6 months he was signing "more cookies!" I want to help other parents discover the miracle of understanding what their child is trying to tell them before they are verbal. You will think it's as amazing as I do!
